4. Esquina Común

We love places that are out of sight of everyone and Esquina Común is one of them. It is a secret dining room that reveals the location a day before your visit. Please note that, to attend, it is mandatory that you make a reservation.
Upon arrival you will be surprised by a beautiful terrace that has no fixed menu. The dishes are based on seasonal ingredients and the inspiration of the person who prepares them. So each visit you will be surprised with new recipes. Here you will also find a varied menu of Mexican and international wines, as well as cocktails and even pulque.
This jewel of Mexico City received a star in the first Michelin edition in Mexico. If you haven’t yet gone to try what they serve, this 2025 is the perfect time to discover it. ⭐

There are also gyozas, rice, fried chicken, among other specialties. As for drinks: craft beers, sakes and non-alcoholic drinks (honorable mention to the sakura mocktail). 😍
Fideo Gordo recently opened its new location. Although it retains its emblematic (and colorful) bar, now the space is embellished by a large dining room that is illuminated by color-changing bombs. 🤩 We love taking photos here.
